Spoiler Alert

1. When talking about a movie to an audience that has not yet seen the movie, this phrase is used by a speaker to warn that they are about to reveal plot details that may be surprising or unexpected. The thought is that revealing certain plot details will detract from the natural viewing experience, so the warning serves as an opportunity for people to stop listening/reading.

1a. The same idea, but in the context of other media such as books, television shows, etc.

2. Often this phrase is used jokingly following, or immediately proceeding information that is felt to be obvious.
1) Spoiler alert! We're about to discuss the ending of the Empire Strikes Back, so stop reading now if you haven't seen it yet.

2) "I loved Titanic, the best part was the special effects during the ship sinking... oh sorry, spoiler alert."

University of Spoiled Foreigners

With over eighty countries represented in the student body, children of incomprehensible means from Latin America, Europe, and Southeast Asia attend this Jesuit institution, and pay tuition on par with Stanford or an Ivy League school. These students are frequently seen driving Lamborghinis, Aston Martins, Porsches, Lotuses, and BMW's, and carrying purses made by Prada, Jimmy Choo, and D&G. Instead of studying, they can often be found congregating in VIP sections of clubs such as Ruby Skye, running thousand-dollar-plus tabs on a regular basis. Spoiled is interchangeable with snotty or snobby, as in the University of Snotty/Snobby Foreigners.

Also known as the University of San Francisco.
I went by the University of Spoiled Foreigners today, and saw someone's Ferrari getting towed for parking in front of a fire hydrant. I left just as he started throwing a temper tantrum in front of the tow truck, but it was pretty funny watching him throw his iPhone in disgust. I guess Daddy is getting the bill for this.

Spoiled Brat

Children who use their parents' weaknesses in order to get material goods. The weakness is usually guilt. These are the kids who expect their parents to buy them an awesome car for their 16th birthday, and another car when they crash that one. These children are truly ridiculous and give kids everywhere a bad name.
Spoiled Brat - "Daddy! I want this car!"
Father - "I'm sorry honey but I need to pay for mortgage which I haven't paid since I had to buy that boat last year."
Brat - "But Daddyyyyy! The people at my extremely expensive private high school were making fun of me because my phone came out last month and theirs are all brand new!"
Father - "Okay sweetie, I'll buy you the car and a new phone. We can live in the car when the house gets taken away!"
Brat - "Yaaaaaay!! Thank you Daddy! I love you!"
Father's thoughts - 'Shoot me now...'
